HFETAG - Standardization
Did you know the The Department of Defense Human Factors Engineering Technical Advisory Group is composed of 19 sub Technical Advisory Groups?
One of those is the Human Factors Standardization (HFS) SubTAG.
This SubTAG aims to identify programs and initiatives that are needed within the Department of Defense, specifically within Human Factors Standardization Area of Consideration (HFAC), other government lead standardization activities, and offices of primary record.
The group's goal is also to provide advisory support to ensure successful coordinated efforts in implementing planned Human Factors Standardization. Avoiding duplication among DoD standardization is a critical function of this group as duplicated standards may lead to conflicting guidance. Lastly, this group aims to maximize and enhance the exchange of standardization information between the DoD human factors community and other government, non-government standards bodies, and other technical societies and industry groups.
Much of this group's work includes identifying problems and opportunities on standardization activities, suggesting proposed actions to address the problems and exploiting opportunities for government-industry cooperation in resolving them. They also work to identifiy effective and efficient means of using standards in acquisition programs.
